  • Publication number: 20070016683
    Abstract: A method, system and computer program product are provided for representing resource sets in a variable format. Variable resource sets are represented in two parts: a system topology domain and a system detail level. Logical entities are allowed to consume variable resource sets to specify the domain and level required in the attachment. Thus, the resource set attachment is made using a domain system detail level, but the actual resources represented are derived dynamically. That is, the elements that were once statically represented by bits in the resource set are now derived dynamically to reflect the system state at the time they are being used.

  • Patent number: 7004682
    Abstract: Articulated pipe jack clamps include a pair of laterally opposed L-shaped legs hinged at an upper end to a central threaded collar, each having an elongate upper portion and a shorter inwardly turned bottom portion engageable with the underside of a wide V-shaped cradle of a pipe jack. A threaded stem engaged in the collar has a handle at its top end and an inverted V-shaped head connected at its bottom end by a ball-and-socket connection. The clamp is placed vertically downward over a work piece supported in the pipe jack cradle such that its V-shaped head is engaged on the top of the work piece, and the bottom portion of each leg is disposed beneath the sides of the cradle, then the head is screwed down to raise and engage the bottom portion of the legs on the underside of the cradle to clamp the work piece in the pipe jack.

  • Patent number: 6244949
    Abstract: The internal organs of a slain deer are removed from the animal cavity by sealing the rectum passage prior to forming an access slit along the deer belly. An annular (tubular) cutter is rotated on the deer rump to severe a plug of flesh containing the anus, after which the cutter is drawn away from the deer carcass to expose the rectum. A cord is tied around the exposed rectum so that the rectum is sealed against the escape of waste material when the deer belly is cut to gain access to the internal organs.
